Finding a safe and effective vaccine to prevent HIV infection will require thousands of people from all walks of life to support HIV vaccine studies and encourage those who volunteer. By spreading the word about HIV vaccine research, you can help support the search for a vaccine. For information on how you can get involved in your local community, select your city from the sidebar on the left.
Join a Community Advisory Board
In every community where
federally-funded HIV vaccine research is being conducted, a diverse group of
volunteers serve on Community Advisory Boards that review the work of the
clinical trial site, provide recommendations to researchers, and keep their
communities informed. If you are interested in joining a Community Advisory
Board, select your city from the sidebar on the left.
Learn More About Clinical Trials
To find a safe and
effective vaccine to prevent HIV, we will need thousands of volunteers from all
types of backgrounds to participate in HIV vaccine studies. If you are HIV
negative and interested in finding out more about volunteering in a preventive
HIV vaccine clinical trial, select your city from the sidebar on the left.
If You Don’t See Your City Listed
There are still many
things you can do to help support the cause. Get informed. Tell a friend about
the need for an HIV vaccine. Spread the word that vaccines are our best hope for
ending AIDS.
